Will a Staples sales rep just accept the spoken code, or will they require the physical coupon? I was at a Staples and I mentioned an online code though I did not have the physical coupon. They scrambled around trying to find someone elses physical coupon to scan into the computer. I finally found the code using my smart phone - and they just entered it into the computer to give me the benefit of the coupon.

I ALWAYS just tell them the code othese 5 digit deals and have them enter. It's so much easier, saves me the time of having them study and question the validity of what I am buying vs what the coupon allows.

ymmv on your question.

if they manually punch the 5 digit codes shown, they will work on 11/21, however, a physical coupon requirement is really up to the cashier/manager.

Perhaps you can just show them this coupon on your smartphone? (take a pic of the upload or the link to the SacBee paper in another post)

Awesome! I bought a Canon Pixma MG6220 yesterday for $69.99 but just talked to cust service at local B&M and they will honor the coupon. They argued about being an in-store purchase for 25% off but in the end they agreed that all I have to do is walk in with the receipt.

Good job OP!!

Hi alan,

if you can find a laptop with an i3 or i5 processor priced about $400-50 ($300-50 with coupon), I'd say that would be your best bet as far as a laptop goes. See what's offered in Lenovo, HP, Dell as well as Toshiba. You will qualify for any rebates, I know some HP lappies sometimes have a $50 rebate on them.

also look for some bells and whistles like HDMI port, built in webcam/mic, decent speakers, etc. That way you have a machine that will be useful for the long run.

Not sure what you want screen size wise but 14-15.6" is about right for most. GOOD LUCK!

PS $399 for a 17" Toshiba is a decent deal, but I think we have seen some recently for $399 without any coupon needed.

Also look in the first section of your big city paper if it will not download nicely, appears in San Diego Union-Tribune today and since my location is the tip of the country better-located places probably might have it ready for the snipping.
